Garrett: 'New Rihanna album is upbeat'

Sean Garrett has promised that Rihanna's new album will include more upbeat and energetic songs.

The songwriter told MTV News that the upcoming record reflects Rihanna's positive state of mind.

"I can definitely say that her album is definitely gonna be way more exciting, happy," he said.

"I hope she doesn't mind me saying this. I love Rihanna. She's fun, she's like a sister, and I tend to think she doesn't really take herself too seriously. And I think that's what this album is gonna be about."

Garrett added that the singer struggled to bounce back from her assault case against ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

"Remember when Rihanna was just the little girl from the island and she was just having fun with 'Pon de Replay' and enjoying life?" he said.

"It always seemed like, 'Dag, she has that thing'. And it wasn't so serious until the incident happened. And everything became so serious. That's just life. But I'm just happy to see her back. And I can definitely say the records that we've been working on are very positive and very explosive. Heavy in the club."

At least Rated R eventually did quite well!

The singles did NOTHING compared to the singles of the previous album, and since Rihanna is a single/iTunes-artist..

Well Russian Roulette went Top 10 in the US and the UK. Rude Boy was a transatlantic #1 smash hit.

Rated R sold very disappointingly at first, but my point is that the album had legs and ended up selling decently overall.

these are some really healthy overall sales for the album. she and her label must be really pleased with the outcome, considering the risk they took.

New Rihanna single 'to premiere next week'

Rihanna's new single will reportedly premiere next week.

Earlier today, it was reported that the singer's new release will be called 'Only Girl' and will be the first track lifted from her fifth studio album.

A message on The Big Top 40's Twitter account revealed that the song will premiere next Tuesday.

"New Rihanna song details for those who've asked. It's called 'Only Girl'. It's big and dancey and it gets released to UK radio stations Tuesday," it said.

It has been claimed that the song will not be as dark as the popstar's recent Rated R material.

Rihanna takes over Twitter account

Rihanna has claimed that she will no longer let her label post comments on her Twitter account.

The singer has announced that she will be the only one who has access to her account and insisted that the days of Def Jam/SRP posing as her were over.

The 22-year-old wrote: "So now that I took over my Twitter page, no more corny label tweets.....lol! Whaaasssuup ppl! (sic)"

Shortly after Rihanna's statement, the star's former boyfriend Chris Brown wrote: "TWITTER JUST GOT WACK!!!!!!." :rolleyes:

Rather transparent, wouldn't you say?

I wonder if Chris knows that they considered changing the name to Twatter after he created an account there.
